By Uloop Staff on January 22, 2025

The Palm Beach Photographic Centre has announced the launch of a graduate film school unique in its hands-on approach to teaching advanced feature filmmaking, according to a recent press release. The Feature Film Conservatory is the only graduate film school in the world that funds the development, preproduction, production and postproduction of a feature film that each class member jointly owns.

The Feature Film Conservatory is based on the tradition of experiential learning where students work with more than 30 industry professionals in each of the crafts motion picture production. These mentors will also provide the foundation for each student’s professional film industry networking.

The one-calendar-year accelerated program focuses on the practical experience of creating a feature film in a workflow consistent with professional practice. The first year’s four-semester program runs from September 1, 2025, through August 14, 2026.

Among the unique advantages The Feature Film Conservatory offers include:

• Learning every aspect of feature filmmaking from developing the concept through distributing the completed feature film
• Creating and profiting from their own feature film
• Earning a terminal degree – a Master of Fine Arts (MFA)
• Requiring no mandatory fees or hidden production costs
• Providing extensive networking opportunities
• One year time to degree

“While The Conservatory is distinguished by its competitive tuition, its accelerated time to degree, and the networking potential provided by its mentors, a student-created feature film is the game changer,” said A. P. Ferullo, founder and director.
